Dr. Molnar has built and operated more than 60 pilot plant circuits extracting a wide range of metallic elements and has also designed and built over 20 custom solvent extraction pilot plant circuits for use in specific projects and general testing. His efforts include test program design, management and supervision, pilot plant design, management, and operation (including operator training), as well as data analysis for bench-scale and pilot plant programs.

Ron is a life-member and fellow of the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), and has authored and co-authored numerous publications and oral presentations, He founded MetNetH2O Inc., an independent consultancy based in Ontario, Canada specializing in solvent extraction and ion exchange process testing and development. Dr. Molnar received his Bachelor of Engineering in Metallurgy from McGill University and received a PhD in Metallurgy at Imperial College, Royal School of Mines, London England.

Dr. Molnar will play a key role as project leader overseeing all phases of lithium process testing activities and will act as Alpha Lithium's Qualified Person (QP) when reporting technical process testing work and results.

Brad Nichol, President and CEO, commented, "Doctor Molnar's brilliant career has not been limited to getting Standard Lithium's extraction plant commissioned, he has also been instrumental in the design and optimization of many large installations at several other blue-chip companies worldwide. We are extremely lucky and proud to welcome Dr. Molnar to our team and look forward to his expertise as we continue our expansion in the Tolillar and Hombre Muerto salars of Argentina."
